Joe Biden Backs Down on Taiwan After Xi Jinping Warns of ‘Playing with Fire’
Breitbart ^ | Nov 17, 2021 | by Charlie Spiering

Posted on 11/17/2021 4:15:24 PM PST by Jim Robinson

President Joe Biden walked back a comment apparently describing Taiwan as “independent” on Tuesday after dictator Xi Jinping threatened Biden in a virtual meeting that those supporting the island nation would get “burned.”

After an event on infrastructure in New Hampshire, Biden told reporters he made it very clear to Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping during their video conference that the United States supported the 1979 Taiwan Act.

Thanks free traitors. I hope that $.10 you saved on communist made paint brushes makes up for what you did to this country and its allies.

And that goes for the Republicans who voted for these free trade deals too. I know many dems went along, but that doesn't excuse the Republicans who voted for this.

Dear gawd, Brother Jim, this scenario reminds me of the old movie HOOSIERS where the drunk Dennis Hopper character was put in to coach for the missing Gene Hackman character. I so miss Mr Trump.

You think there’s computer / electronic chip shortages now? Wait until the ChiComs take over Taiwan. TSMC is _THE_ primary producer of FPGAs and many other sophisticated computer chips.

Yeah when Xi said he might use military force Biden said nothing but no doubt had a “bathroom accident” like he did with the pope. So Xi now knows that if he acts with decisive force, a chaotic and leaderless Washington will not be able to mount a serious response. Open invitation, and Biden will do the wrong thing as he has wanted to do for forty odd years— react impulsively and stupidly, with too little too late, but enough to result in major American bleeding.

China, salivating over Taiwan and maybe Australia and New Zealand.
North Korea over South Korea,
Russia over Ukraine.

Thanks Biden!

China has always been a thug and a liar. The only proper response is to tell them that we stand by our allies and if they engage American forces we will show them no quarter.

Worthless coward. He doesn’t want China to release those videos of Hunter. The ones with the 5-7 year olds.
